Capmany is widely recognised as the most important rock musician and a cornerstone in Costa Rican rock development. Many musicians have said they found him a source of inspiration, and most of his songs have been sung by other people as a form of tribute.
Sony Music edited a last album with Capmany's music after his death. "Volando alto/La historia salvaje" is a doble disc, one with his old hits and other with unreleased songs that were completed by his bandmates.

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Que se llama Concepción
Hey, yo tengo una nena
Que se llama Concepción.
Ella tiene un gran secreto
Ella es mi dulce amor.
A veces me hipnotizas
Más que la televisión
Más que la televisión.
Cuando el anuncio venga
Te daré todo mi amor.
Es mejor estar a tu lado
Que errar de mar en mar
Es mejor estar a tu lado nena
Que errar de bar en bar.
Quiero siempre estar contigo
Concepción.
Oh, mi dulce Concepción.
Oh, mi dulce Concepción.
Oh, mi dulce Concepción.
Oh, mi dulce Concepción.
Iluminas mi camino nena
Concepción.
¿Cuántos golpes hay que darse
Para aprender a volar?
¿Cuántos vuelos hay que darse, nena
Para dejarse de golpear?
Quiero siempre estar contigo
Solo estar contigo, mi amor.
Oh, mi dulce Concepción.
Oh, mi dulce Concepción.
Oh, mi dulce Concepción.
Oh, mi dulce Concepción.
Quiero siempre estar contigo
Sólo estar contigo mi amor.
